DESIGN AGENCY will bring together the spectrum of research and
creative practice currently occurring within the ACADIA community
through the combined support of the research networks of the University
of Southern California, University of California Los Angeles and
Southern California Institute of Architecture. Questions the capacity
for computation to inform or challenge traditional design processes;
computation as design operation - the capacity, condition, or state of
acting or of exerting power, and/or computation as design
instrumentality - the design mechanism through which power is exerted
or an end is achieved.
ACADIA is an international network of digital design
researchers and professionals. ACADIA supports critical investigations
into the role of computation in architecture, planning, and building
science, encouraging innovation in design creativity, sustainability,
and education.
